Good news today as well.
Expectations for a fertilization rate are that 50-75% of the mature eggs retrieved will fertilize. So if all 10 of the eggs retrieved yesterday had been mature (unlikely), we’d expect 5-7 of them to fertilize by today.
Of the 10 that were retrieved, 9 were mature (we expect that one of them was post-mature… remember that 25.9 follicle?)
Of the 9 mature eggs yesterday –
I have 9 two-celled embryos today.
Honestly, a girl can’t ask for better news than that, can she? I think I actually shed some tears.
I’m still in a fair bit of pain – but it’s worth it.
